Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Billingsley, AL.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Billingsley includes detox services which are safely handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
